What made you smile today? - Page 840

SnackTime · 05-20-2014, 06:10 PM

A phone conversation with the ParentalUnit.

Knowing the ParentalUnit is all excited about the holiday weekend.

Sitting in the shade on the tailgate of the truck during lunch break.

The upcoming weekend.

Taking the dogs for a walk after work.

It was a good day.

Bèsame* · 05-20-2014, 09:51 PM

One of the girls at work brought me a treat from Starbucks. Yummy. Kept me buzzing all day!

Another one brought in her Cricket thing for me to play with over the weekend. Going to be interesting

my son's 5th grade graduation.

ProfPacker · 05-21-2014, 03:44 PM

A fb friend of mine told me this funny story. I guess (don't ask why) she is fb friends with Patti Davis (Nancy and Ronnie's daughter) whose dog is sick. This friend got Patti Davis mixed up with me and started to give her condolences saying she is so sorry that her dog is sick now right after her cat died (my cat died last week). So she says that Patti Davis never responded to her (duh) but every one on Patti Davis' fb page started to give her condolensces on her cat's (my cat's death). I don't know this just tickled my funny bone. One, who friends Patti Davis and two, that we were mixed up etc. Now it doesn't sound so funny but it made myself and a co-worker laugh out loud. hahaa

Sushi buffet with one of my good friends! *full*

cinnamongrrl · 05-21-2014, 03:58 PM

I went for a hike after work....

At long last I have figured out what a butternut tree looks like

while looking at said butternut tree...I saw a small red bird in the top branches...when I grabbed my binoculars, I saw it was a scarlet tananger....a bird I have longed to see since childhood....

SnackTime · 05-21-2014, 06:06 PM

A phone call to check in on me.

Teddybear · 05-21-2014, 06:34 PM

being OUT of work mode
planning our FIRST trip together this weekend
getting the internet fixed at the girls house
but the number 1 reason Im smiling is her being here with me and having THAT look and smile that I cant resist

nekohl · 05-21-2014, 07:34 PM

I'm doing a coworker's hair for a wedding Saturday. At lunch today we went to Sallys Beauty and picked out some extensions. After work, I plopped that faux hair on her head and whipped up a do that ended up looking like Elsa from Frozen. Apparently this is exactly what she wanted.
Much squealing, posing in the mirror and fingering of the braid draped over her shoulder commenced.

Makes me smile when I make my girls happy

WildHorses · 05-21-2014, 10:43 PM

Having sourdough bread and butter.

*Anya* · 05-22-2014, 12:08 AM

A couple of things that all connected.

My sweetie came back from 6-days in Portland visiting her butch bud last night and we had a wonderful welcome home "party" and

I was sitting at a light while driving to work this AM, smiling a lot to myself, thinking about it and

I looked to my right and an older man was smiling back at me and gave me a thumbs up.

Made me laugh out loud.

Kobi · 05-22-2014, 03:38 AM

Waking up to roses in full bloom, their fragrance just filling the bedroom.

Having coffee on the deck, watching the sun rise - even if I was in sweats and a hoodie.

WildHorses · 05-22-2014, 07:06 AM

""According to Statistics Brain,
(http://www.statisticbrain.com/attent...an-statistics/)

the average attention span of a human is approximately 8 seconds

compared to the

average attention span of a gold fish which is approximately 9 seconds. If this statistic doesn’t prove anything else, it certainly proves that we are busy and easily distracted. ""

ProfPacker · 05-22-2014, 09:04 PM

well, I wouldn't have expected coming home smiling but a friend of mine gave a friend of hers my email and we met for dinner tonight. I had a really good time. This is like my first official fix up date since I left my long term relationship. It turns out (NYC is a very small lesbian world) that I know some of her good friends, we have a similar history (NYC in the late 60's and 70's and 80's) and she seemed (of course I don't really know her) to be a nice person. Not sure what comes next in the dating world but would like to see her again. I am actually shocked at myself for thinking this. I went into it with no expectation except for a good dinner at this french bistro
